"This particular action (President Bush commuting the “Scooter” Libby prison sentence) by the president is one more piece of evidence in their ongoing disregard for the rule of law that they think they don't have to answer to.” -Hillary Clinton campaigning in Iowa, ABC News Online: Clinton Slams Bush Over Libby Maneuver.

The number of amazing factoids surrounding Scooter Libby's career in Washington DC give us a glimpse of the bizarre world of "insiders" who infest our Nation's Capital.

Before he became Dick Cheney's right-hand man, Scooter Libby was the lawyer for Marc Rich, the convicted tax cheat that fled the country and was pardoned by Bill Clinton in the final hours of his presidency. Libby defended Clinton’s pardon convicted tax cheat Rich by claiming “misconstrued facts” by Federal prosecutors over Rich's tax cheating. Coincidently, Marc Rich’s wife contributed a million bucks to the Democrat Party, and she gave $70,000 to Hillary Clinton's successful Senate campaign and $450,000 to the Clinton presidential library fund.  Even more of a coincidence, Marc Rich contributed $75 million dollars to the Israeli Lobby who got Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, the mayor of Jerusalem, Ehud Olmert, and former head of Israeli Intelligence, Shabtai Shavit to write letters to President Clinton begging for Marc Rich’s pardon. Something that convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard resents deeply since according to Pollard ALL Israeli spys should be given pardons. Given Marc Rich’s long history of involvement in Israeli causes is legendary, it's not surprising that Libby, the neo-con, was involved with him.

Anyone who thinks that voting for Hillary Clinton---or any Democrat for that matter--is going to “change things” in Washington, DC is sadly mistaken.
